the arm looked like it was unscrewing some kinda bolt on that thing. Dunno what was bubbling out of it.

They are hooking up lines for the top kill. Those are the lines that will carry mud to the BOP.

Sorry after watching it a bit. I really think they are adjusting the a coupling that controls the angle of the riser insertion tube.

You can see as they adjust the angle more or less oil and gas are coming out of the riser .

I noticed BP had a disclaimer under the video that said the flow will vary during the top kill.

That seems to be the broken riser, is there a live feed of the BOP?

seems to be some mud in the flow. I guess they are still testing the mud flow into BOP. When plume changes to full grey you will know top kill has begun in full.

I don't see anything outside the broken riser and the flow.
